Questions for oral answer

This page lists questions presented to Ministers and members for oral answer. Twelve questions for oral answer are presented to Ministers most sitting days. Additional questions may be asked of members, usually the chairs of select committees. Occasionally, an urgent question may be asked.

The uncorrected transcript of each question and answer, including supplementary questions and answers, is added throughout the afternoon, as it becomes available. Questions may be added out of sequence. Questions containing te reo Māori will not be added until their transcription and translation have been completed.

The aim is to add all questions by about 5.30 p.m. Until that point, each question is subject to amendment without notice.
